I am not very experience at the science behind it, but some supplements help to carry more oxygen through our RBC, promoting its production which I guess its not suitable for us ? Before and soon after I was diagnosed

Approved additives and E-numbers (UK)
As food additives are often discussed, I thought it might be useful to post the current list of approved additives in the UK. Note that the use of substances in foods is largely separate to their use in medicines. One example being Titanium dioxide which is now banned in foods in the EU and Northern

How I reinvented my life after GCA.
I had already retired as a Flight Attendant from a large commercial airline. I then went on to a part time job which I absolutely loved. I always said I was never going to stop working. I was healthy and could literally run rings around the younger employees. Life was good and I was so happy. 4 months
